Fiction

Joe Parker will never see women, young or old, the same way again.

Six months earlier, he would have laughed at the suggestion he’d find himself drinking Canadian whisky in Montreal at one o’clock on a Saturday afternoon, much less doing it with a little old woman who used to be a spy and loves telling erotic stories.

But letters he’s discovered in his grandmother’s basement have set him on a quest to uncover his grandfather’s identity. They lead to Nanette, a retired British agent who served with his grandmother in France during World War II.

Joe finds Nanette in a retirement home, her body prematurely ravaged by age and illness. But she’s still the same saucy, irreverent, and unapologetic vixen she was during the war inside, and she’s bored to tears.

At first, Nanette toys with Joe, using spy tactics to keep him off balance. But once she starts revealing secrets, he’s mesmerized. The roles Nanette and his grandmother played behind the scenes in the war are not what Joe expected, and the secrets she reveals, not just about the war but also about what women want and the nature of love, will change his life forever.

Inspired by true stories from World War II, “Code Name Nanette” is a quirky, sexy, character-driven homage to the female adventurers and heroines who loved and fought on the front lines as passionately as the men, but whose escapades and exploits remain largely unknown and unheralded to this day.
